Everything was good besides there was a lot of dust and cob webs on the beds. The pond was not able to be accessed to feed the fish and there was no fish in it. The pond smelled awful so every time we went outside it smelled horrible.

You spend so much time picking a vacation spot for your family. It has to be affordable, clean, well taken care of and as described. We’ve been let down more times than I’d like to admit.We traveled in two cars and because my wife and I had to stop for a grocery pickup, my daughter, son and granddaughter went ahead to the rental and I was so relieved when I got a text “IT IS SO CUTE!”.A little later when we arrived with the groceries I was so happy when I seen them come out on the porch smiling and telling us we had to come inside to see it before unloading.How nice. It actually wasn’t as the photos showed…. It was much nicer! How often does that happen???Because of a family issue back home we weren’t able to stay the entire week, but communication with the owners was perfect. Kind, courteous, and most of all understanding.I’m into photography and wish I had photos to share that related to the rental more but because we had to leave I never got the chance.This is a gem folks. If you need to shut down a little and get back to what’s important, this is an incredible place to do it.

Great cabin, definitely remote. So if you just want a place to stay and do absolutely nothing but enjoy the sound of nature, this place is it. Would definitely book again.

Comfortable cabin, peaceful location

This cozy cabin made for an excellent home base during a recent family girls’ trip to the Helvetia and Pickens areas. The large bathroom adequately accommodated three women and was stocked with plenty of towels. Beds were comfortable and dressed with soft linens. We thoroughly enjoyed the cabin’s peaceful and secluded setting, accessed by an easily navigable drive. I appreciated the value of this rental along with the owner’s excellent communication and would not hesitate to stay here again.

Secluded, Peaceful and Gorgeous

We were spending a few days attending a local festival and by God’s Grace found this gorgeous property. Extremely clean, rustic decor, very comfortable. Fun games, good wifi, and we had a blast with Deer Pong. Enjoy the wildlife which visits, including deer and a very inquisitive hummingbird! Cows watch you from the lower pasture. I would recommend for anyone looking for secluded peace! Bring food. Nearest grocery is a hike!

Our stay was wonderful. No phonecalls could come in or out but we enjoyed that extra quiet. The WiFi helped with maps and boredom. The Coe county store down the road was really nice. Great food and prices without having to go too far. We did Fasnacht this year and this place was close by which helped greatly! The steep incline to get to the cabin shocked us at first but we soon mastered it.

Very much in the middle of nowhere. Long drive to everywhere. Did not have internet the first couple of days because we were emailed the wrong password. Once we got that straightened out, the internet worked great.
